- Description:
- OpenVPN is a robust, scalable and highly configurable VPN (Virtual Private
Network) daemon which can be used to securely link two or more private networks
using an encrypted tunnel over the internet. It can operate over UDP or TCP,
can use SSL or a pre-shared secret to authenticate peers, and in SSL mode, one
server can handle many clients.

FreeBSD 6 no longer adds debug.if_* sysctl variables in its default kernel
(according to the release notes), so our heuristic assumes the module is
missing and tries to load it, which fails as the module already exists.

- Update to 2.0.2 that brings these upstream changes:
- fix bug that would exhaust file descriptors as the routing table was
modified
(this had already been part of the port previously)
- fix bug that would block the management socket until the peer connected
- fix pkitool sh incompatibilities (from NetBSD)

- Security update to version 2.0.1, fixing four denial of service bugs,
CAN-2005-2531, CAN-2005-2532, CAN-2005-2533, CAN-2005-2534
- Drop old init script and add a modern rcNG script in its place,
requested by Matthias Grimm and Dirk Gouders (although the script below is
one I, Matthias Andree, wrote). It can automatically load tun/tap drivers.
- move pkg-message to files/pkg-message.in, revise it, list it in SUB_FILES
to expand ${PREFIX}.
- print pkg-message after installation from port
- switch to official "make check" as smoke-test, rather than wiring our own.
- prefer LZO2 in most situations, as OpenVPN will pick up LZO2 rather than
LZO1 if both are installed.
